This mod was wrapped into Leaders of Legend and will not be ported separately to TWW3.

Hi I'm using the Leaders of Legend mod, but I can't seem to get any Knowlagable Lord in my recruit pool as Dark elves, could this be a bug?

Never seen vigorous trait in any of mine campaigns(

Better late than never! What a LEGEND!! Thank you!
Cryswar  [author] 14 Jul, 2021 @ 2:36pm 
Very small update to make sure this works for current patch.

can we get an update? I can't pay you but I can offer you my sincerest gratitude and thanks

Is this included in Leaders of Legend ?

@Damadtroller
"Legendary Lords are not affected."

"This mod is completely functional, but if you are interested in a version that also alters faction bonuses may I suggest its pseudo-successor, Leaders of Legend?"

Did you even read description?

@Cryswar
Are there supposed to be changes to legendary lord traits? It doesn't look like they are affected.
XA3 10 Jan, 2021 @ 12:45am 
Doesnt work with Drycha(lords and heroes)

@Cryswar thanks again for the update. Much appreciated.

I really like this mod due to its simplicity - less chance of things breaking/incompatibility & having bugs. I understand not wanting to maintain 2 mods. But if you ever change your mind, I'm sure there are a number of us that'd appreciate your work.
Cryswar  [author] 3 Dec, 2020 @ 6:11pm 
Very minor update for new DLC.

This mod is deprecated and will not be receiving any further changes, use Leaders of Legend if you want updates and new content. I'm leaving it up anyways for people who don't like change.

Excellent addition. Amazing how many traits were next to useless. Well done.
Cryswar  [author] 18 Aug, 2020 @ 10:47am 
Glad to hear you're enjoying it! Yeah, a lot of vanilla traits are... ridiculously bad, and that's AFTER CA made them slightly less terrible a while back. I wish CA would make this and Leaders of Legend obsolete haha, I'd rather not have to mod this stuff to have not-crappy lord bonuses.
hi3r0ph4nt 18 Aug, 2020 @ 5:24am 
Works even with other mods. For example Chaos Dwarves also benefit from the new traits.
hi3r0ph4nt 18 Aug, 2020 @ 5:09am 
Such a simple mod which makes the game so much better. It's incredible how most of the traits are shit. With this there is an actual choice to heroes and lords beyond recruit-dismiss till you get Knowledgeable or maybe that 10% ambush chance increase. CA really needs to work on polishing their old content before putting out new ones. Godspeed Cryswar
Cryswar  [author] 30 Jul, 2020 @ 12:38pm 
For clarification, this mod does not add any new traits at all, Leaders of Legend adds some. It just edits vanilla ones.

I believe I actually removed the LL bonuses from this mod since people were complaining about it and used LoL for legendary lord bonuses and faction bonuses, but I'll doublecheck - if so, I'll fix the description, sorry for the confusion.

Btw 2 more things:
1- Leaders of Legend works flawlessly too, so I don't really know.
2- I love this mod! Just to be clear :D
Clonazepam® 20 Jul, 2020 @ 1:05pm 
Hi! I used to use the mod, then I stopped playing altogether for a while. I tried the game again with the new beta and downloaded this one. Sadly, it doesn't work for me, at least not the better traits for legendary lords.
I think I tried everything: Unsuscribed, deleted the mod, deleted the data, validated local archives, refreshed the mod manager (a tried both CA's and Kaedrin's), resuscribed, played with this mod alone... Nothing.
Is there something happening with the mod or is it on my end?
Noah in da House 12 Jul, 2020 @ 2:01pm 
Is there some way I can get this mod to overwrite SFO traits?
Seven Samurott 9 Jul, 2020 @ 6:03am 
This mod doesn't function. I've tried turning off all my mods and running only this and there were still none of the listed changes in the Google doc made to the game. I don't know how to fix it.
takara4real 6 Jul, 2020 @ 4:10pm 
Hello! Is the ratcatcher trait only available to heroes ? (ranged) Its so rare and only shows up once every blue moon...
Syntax 5 Jul, 2020 @ 9:07pm 
anyone else seeing 'Sigmar's Ward' no longer available with some Imperial Mages? Specifically Light Wizards and Jade Wizard's are missing the ability, yet Fire Wizards seem to have it. I'm not sure if it is this mod that is causing it, or just more likely a conflict - however this is one of the newer ones I've subscribed to, and my last campaign didn't have this issue.

Playing as Marcus Wulfheart.

I'm trying to figure out if it's your mod that adds "Moar Paint" trait, it's totally useless compared to "Tough"
Seven Samurott 14 Jun, 2020 @ 7:43am 
I'm having issues getting this mod to run. I tried running it alone, no other mods active, and it still didn't do anything. Is it the mod or something else?
SgtKinCaiD 4 Jun, 2020 @ 4:50am 
I second Big Moist !
Pog Miser 29 May, 2020 @ 9:08pm 
do you think you could remove the lazy/procrastinator traits or make it so they don't trigger because being penalized for having a defensive army in a settlement is kind of frustrating.
Cryswar  [author] 28 May, 2020 @ 6:47pm 
No idea
MF Shroom 27 May, 2020 @ 5:52pm 
is this compatible with 'cpecific's trait manager'?
Cryswar  [author] 23 May, 2020 @ 12:12am

Updated for Warden and Paunch.

I absolutely love it, thank you kindly!
Giorgio94 25 Dec, 2019 @ 5:14am 
Hey Cryswar, thanks for the response, I've removed it ;)

Nice! It covers both Generic and Legendary. The difference between the mod you linked and the one i've talked about is that it does not add skill trees to lords, it purely boosts the stats of generic and legendary lord artifacts, as well as Dwarf Workshop artifacts. I feel you on the business, if you ever got time to make a artifact mod though, you'll have a passionate subscriber in me! Cheers
Cryswar  [author] 22 Dec, 2019 @ 12:40pm 
Leaders of Legend is literally just this mod, but it also covers legendary lords and faction bonuses. This mod exists for people who ONLY want generic lord trait buffs. If you have LoL, this mod can be safely unsubbed and ignored.

On that mod; does it cover legendary lord items or just the generic ones? For LL items I've been using this mod https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1408777694 , ironically I had been kinda considering doing a mod for normal items but I've been suuuuper busy lately, Storm of Chaos update and a non- TWW2 project upcoming as well, so haven't really gotten around to it yet.
Giorgio94 22 Dec, 2019 @ 1:41am 
Hi Cryswar, Thanks for a great mod. I love this.

I did not quite understand in your description - Is The Great Trait Update incorporated into the Leaders of Legend mod? I am subscribed to both now but I figure that's not necessary?

Also a long shot suggestion - May I recommend ifyou have time to reconstruct artifacts? There used to be a great mod (but now the owner hasn't been online for 2 months) that improved picked up artifacts and it would be a great addition to your improved traits/faction bonus library. Here's the mod i'm speaking of https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1158064332

If there is an issue of copyright i think mentioning his credits in your description would be fine..

Cheers!
Cryswar  [author] 16 Dec, 2019 @ 9:19pm 
Sure thing, no problem - I'm just glad you got it sorted out!
Boon: Eggroll 16 Dec, 2019 @ 9:19pm 
I figured it out, disregard that. Thank you for the mod :)
Cryswar  [author] 16 Dec, 2019 @ 2:55am 
Perchance do you have any Movie type mods in your data folder, especially ones that may be outdated? They could be causing the crash, I can confirm that the mod run by itself DOES work fine on the latest version of the game.
Boon: Eggroll 15 Dec, 2019 @ 7:54pm 
Cryswar, for some reason this crashes the game on start up still. Im not sure why, even when its the only mod enabled it crashes the game. It's a great mod, it's very sad to see this :(
Wysaw 14 Dec, 2019 @ 2:59pm 
Thanks for the update.
The Overlander 12 Dec, 2019 @ 6:42pm 
ay ay thx
The Nega Druid 12 Dec, 2019 @ 5:50pm 
You're very welcome and thank you! This is very much appreciated!
Cryswar  [author] 12 Dec, 2019 @ 5:02pm 
Updated! As stated a while back, I removed the legendary lord changes so this mod only touches on generics. Also fixed Wood Elf 'Talon of Kurnous' trait; there were 2 versions of the trait for no apparent reason so both were set to 12% range/damage to be roughly on par with Tactician (slightly better combat stats, but no leadership).

And thank you for your kind words Nega Druid! I don't intend to ditch any of my mods, but some like this one require very little to update for new patches so once I confirm they work I just leave as-is unless someone complains about it haha.
The Nega Druid 12 Dec, 2019 @ 12:11pm 
An update for S&B when you have some spare time would be really welcome! I don't believe it actually needs it, as it works and loads just fine on my game. Though it and Leaders of Legend could both use another pass.(Talon of Kurnous seems not to work right in Leaders, staying at 10% 10% boosts, which makes it less beneficial then the generic trait). I'd love to see this wonderful mod get updated and recognized in the new patch era!

Thanks for your great work for the community!

thank you :)
Cryswar  [author] 30 Oct, 2019 @ 12:59pm 
Leaders of Legend is the definitive version; it includes Great Trait Update and adds more.
Shatilov 27 Oct, 2019 @ 10:07am 
So what is the difference between

this mod The Great Trait Update (Character Trait Overhaul)
and
the other Leaders of Legend (Lord/Faction Trait Overhaul).

Is one of them included in the other?
